[quote=Anonymous]I also had 3 within two years and DH always traveled ~ 2 weeks a month. I agree with many things stated already.
- Much depends on your personality and expectations. You are busy during this time and during the time he is away, it all falls on you. It is not for everyone.
- For a time I didn’t mind when he traveled because in some ways it could be easier, though only for short periods of time. You learn to plan and make sure DH knows he needs to help out. My DH would do a lot around the house, mow the lawn, prep for meals during the week, and make sure all laundry was done before he left.
- When youngest is toddler stages and wants to move around and isn’t content to just sit still for too long. I loved when T-ball practice/ games were near a playground, but, I hated missing so much of the games the older DC was in.
- But, the worst time was middle school ages because of all the traveling in the car with activities - this was very stressful for me. How to essentially be into places at one time. Carpools are essential.
